We didn't get stuck behind the bridge just south of Charleston this time, although we were a little early. Down a few miles, off to the side a barge was in dry dock. The barges don't seem that big (tall?) in the water, but they displace a lot of water to float all that crap they are carrying. It looks like there is more under water than above. We anchored that night at Edisto.
We got to Beaufort the next afternoon after passing through this last bridge, where we regretted not taking the dockhand's advise to turn around and head up the river current to dock. We came in pretty fast but we had a wide open dock so it worked out fine fine. We ate at a little bar and grill overlooking the waterfront park.
On our way down past Savannah we passed by the cemetery from Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. We had visited it on that same southern tour we had taken years ago. There were a lot of big marinas and dock yards doing all sort of work around Savannah. The ship below caught our eye.
